Checking the Consistency of the Cisco Unity Database, and Backing Up Cisco Unity Data
Before you upgrade Cisco Unity, we recommend that you run the DbWalker utility to check the consistency of the Cisco Unity database. Running DbWalker fixes most minor errors automatically and flags any major errors.
On a system with a few hundred subscribers, running DbWalker takes only a few minutes. However, on a large system, running DbWalker may take several hours. The duration depends on the speed of the processor, the amount of RAM in the server, the number of calls that Cisco Unity is taking, and other variables.
We also recommend that you back up Cisco Unity data by using the Disaster Recovery Backup tool. Running the tool takes only a few minutes, and having a DiRT backup allows you to restore Cisco Unity data easily, if necessary.
To Check the Consistency of the Cisco Unity Database
Step 1 On the Cisco Unity server, install the latest version of DbWalker, if it is not already installed.
If Cisco Unity failover is configured, do this procedure on the primary server.
Step 2 Run DbWalker, and correct all errors that the utility finds. Refer to DbWalker Help for detailed instructions on running the utility and on correcting errors in the database. (The Help file, DbWalker.htm, is in the same directory as DbWalker.exe.)
If you choose to back up messages as well as Cisco Unity data in the next procedure, backing up takes longer, the size of the backup is significantly larger, and the account with which you log on to Windows requires additional permissions. Refer to DiRT Help for detailed information.
To Back Up Cisco Unity Data
Step 1 On the Cisco Unity server, install the latest versions of DiRT, if the tools are not already installed.
If Cisco Unity failover is configured, do this procedure on the secondary server.
Step 2 Back up Cisco Unity data by using the Disaster Recovery Backup tool. Refer to DiRT Help for detailed instructions. (The Help file, UnityDisasterRecovery.htm, is in the same directory as UnityDisasterRecoveryBackup.exe.)
Caution Follow Help carefully. DiRT includes a variety of options that you must understand to use the tools successfully. In addition, the account you are logged on as when you back up Cisco Unity data must have sufficient permissions or the backup will fail.
Determining Whether to Set Up Cisco Unity to Use SSL
Note If Cisco Unity is already using SSL, skip this section.
When subscribers log on to the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant (PCA), their credentials are sent across the network to Cisco Unity in clear text. The same is true when the Cisco Unity Administrator and the Status Monitor are configured to use the Anonymous authentication method. In addition, the information that subscribers enter on the pages of the Cisco PCA and of the Cisco Unity Administrator (regardless of which authentication method it uses) is not encrypted.
For increased security, we recommend that you set up Cisco Unity to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. SSL uses public/private key encryption to provide a secure connection between servers and clients, and uses digital certificates to authenticate servers or servers and clients. (A digital certificate is a file that contains encrypted data that attests to the identity of an organization or entity, such as a computer.)
Using the SSL protocol ensures that all Cisco Unity subscriber credentials—as well as the information that a subscriber enters on any page of the Cisco Unity Administrator and the Cisco PCA—are encrypted as the data is sent across the network. In addition, when you set up Cisco Unity to use SSL, each time that a subscriber tries to access any Cisco Unity web application, the browser will confirm that it is connected with the real Cisco Unity server—and not an entity falsely posing as such—before allowing the subscriber to log on.
To set up a web server such as Cisco Unity to use SSL, you can either obtain a digital certificate from a certificate authority (CA) or use Microsoft Certificate Services available with Windows to issue your own certificate. (A CA is a trusted organization or entity that issues and manages certificates at the request of another organization or entity.) Cost, certificate features, ease of setup and maintenance, and the security policies practiced by the organization are some of the issues to consider when determining whether you should purchase a certificate from a CA or issue your own.
Information on third-party CAs, Microsoft Certificate Services, and SSL is widely available on the Internet, as well as in the Windows and IIS online documentation. Such sources can help you determine whether to use SSL and how to set up a web server to use it.
Installing the Microsoft Certificate Services Component
Note If you do not plan to set up Cisco Unity to use SSL or if you want to use a digital certificate from a Certificate Authority to set up Cisco Unity to use SSL, skip this section.
Do the procedure in this section if you plan to set up Cisco Unity to use SSL and you want to use the Microsoft Certificate Services available with Windows to issue your own certificate. You may install the component on the Cisco Unity server or on another server.
To Install the Microsoft Certificate Services Component
Step 1 On the server that will act as your certificate authority (CA) and issue certificates, on the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
Step 2 Click Add/Remove Windows Components.
Step 3 In the Windows Components dialog box, check the Certificate Services check box. Do not change any other items. When the warning appears about not being able to rename the computer, or to join or be removed from a domain, click Yes.
Step 4 Click Next.
Step 5 Click Stand-alone Root CA, and click Next. (A stand-alone CA is a CA that does not require Active Directory.)
Step 6 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation. For information, refer to the Windows documentation.
If a message appears that Internet Information Services is running on the computer and must be stopped before proceeding, click OK to stop the services.
Step 7 In the Completing the Windows Components Wizard dialog box, click Finish.
Step 8 Close the Add Remove Programs dialog box and Control Panel.
Disabling Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services
Note If the system is not using virus-scanning software or Cisco Security Agent for Cisco Unity, skip this section.
You disable virus-scanning and Cisco Security Agent services on the server so that they do not slow down the installation of software or cause the installations to fail. The Cisco Unity Reconfiguration and Upgrade Guide alerts you when to re-enable the services after all of the installation procedures that can be affected are complete.
To Disable and Stop Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services
Step 1 Refer to the virus-scanning software documentation to determine the names of the virus-scanning services.
Step 2 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.
Step 3 Disable and stop each virus-scanning service and the Cisco Security Agent service:
a. In the right pane, double-click the service.
b. On the General tab, in the Startup Type list, click Disabled. This prevents the service from starting when you restart the server.
c. Click Stop to stop the service immediately.
d. Click OK to close the Properties dialog box.
Step 4 When the services have been disabled, close the Services MMC.
Running the Cisco Unity System Preparation Assistant
The Cisco Unity System Preparation Assistant is a program that helps customize the platform for Cisco Unity by checking for and installing Windows 2000 Server components, Microsoft service packs and updates, and other software required by Cisco Unity. (For a detailed list, refer to Components and Software Installed by the Cisco Unity Platform Configuration Discs and the Cisco Unity System Preparation Assistant at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_unity/pcd/pcd_inst.htm.)
Caution Do not run the Cisco Unity System Preparation Assistant remotely by using Windows Terminal Services or other remote-access applications, or the installation of required software may fail.
If a Microsoft AutoMenu window appears while the Cisco Unity System Preparation Assistant is installing an application, close the window and allow the assistant to continue.
To Run the Cisco Unity System Preparation Assistant
Step 1 Log on to Windows by using an account that is a member of the Local Administrators group.

Installing the Latest Microsoft Service Packs and Updates Recommended for Use with Cisco Unity
While you were downloading software using the instructions in the "Downloading Software for the Upgrade" section, if you identified any service packs
Some Microsoft updates can be installed only after a prerequisite service pack has been installed. Install all service packs, if any, before you install updates.
To Install the Latest Microsoft Service Packs Recommended for Use with Cisco Unity
Follow the instructions that you printed or downloaded from the Microsoft website when you downloaded the service packs.
To Install the Latest Microsoft Updates Recommended for Use with Cisco Unity
Step 1 Insert the Cisco Unity Post-Install disc (either the disc shipped from Cisco or the disc that you created when you downloaded the latest Microsoft updates from Cisco.com) in the CD-ROM drive.
Step 2 Browse to each of the applicable directories and install the correct language version of each update: English (ENU), French (FRA), German (DEU), or Japanese (JPN). (For example, if the French version of Windows 2000 Server is installed on the Cisco Unity server, install the French version of any Windows 2000 Server updates.)
To speed the installation, you may want to:
•Install each update at a command prompt by using the /z option, so you do not have to restart the computer after installing each update.
•Install each update at a command prompt by using the /m option, so the update installs without displaying any dialog boxes.
•Create a batch file that installs all of the updates at once.
Step 3 Restart the Cisco Unity server.
Upgrading and Configuring Cisco Unity Software
To upgrade and configure Cisco Unity software, you use the Cisco Unity Installation and Configuration Assistant to run four programs in a specific order. The programs:
•Check the system and upgrade the Cisco Unity software.
•Configure the Cisco Unity services.
•Configure Cisco Unity for the message store.
•Configure the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant to use SSL, if applicable.
Do the procedures in the following two subsections in the order listed.
Upgrading the Cisco Unity Software, and Configuring Services and Cisco Unity for the Message Store
To Upgrade and Configure the Cisco Unity Software
Step 1 Log on to Windows by using the Cisco Unity installation account.
Caution If you have not already done so, disable virus-scanning and Cisco Security Agent services on the server, if applicable. Otherwise, the installation may fail.
Step 2 On Cisco Unity DVD 1 or CD 1, or from the location to which you saved the downloaded Cisco Unity CD 1 image files, browse to the root directory and double-click Setup.exe.
Step 3 If prompted, double-click the language of your choice to continue the upgrade.

Step 23 If you have not previously set up Cisco Unity to use SSL, the Set Up the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant to Use SSL page appears. Skip to the next subsection, "Setting Up the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant to Use SSL."
If Cisco Unity is already set up to use SSL, when the Summary screen appears, click Close.
Setting Up the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant to Use SSL
From the Cisco Unity Installation and Configuration Assistant, you can set up the Cisco PCA to use SSL. Using the SSL protocol ensures that all subscriber credentials—as well as the information that a subscriber enters on any page in the Cisco PCA—are encrypted as the data is sent across the network.
After the Cisco Unity Installation and Configuration Assistant is finished and the Cisco PCA is set up to use SSL, you manually set up the Cisco Unity Administrator and Status Monitor to use SSL. The Cisco Unity Reconfiguration and Upgrade Guide alerts you when to do the procedure.
If you do not want to set up the Cisco PCA to use SSL, see the "Skipping Cisco PCA Setup for SSL" section.
To set up the Cisco PCA to use SSL, do the procedures in the applicable section, depending on whether you are using a certificate authority:
•Setting Up the Cisco PCA to Use SSL by Creating a Local Certificate Without a Certificate Authority
•Setting Up the Cisco PCA to Use SSL by Using a Certificate Authority
Skipping Cisco PCA Setup for SSL
Do the procedure in this section if you do not want to set up the Cisco PCA to use SSL. (Note that without SSL when subscribers log on to the Cisco PCA, their credentials will be sent across the network to Cisco Unity in clear text.

Securing the Example Administrator and Example Subscriber Accounts Against Toll Fraud
It is possible for a malicious user to dial into Cisco Unity, log on as the Example Administrator or Example Subscriber by using the default extension and password, and configure Cisco Unity to forward calls to phone numbers for which there are charges or to reconfigure greetings so an operator believes the messaging system is personally accepting collect-call charges. To help secure Cisco Unity against toll fraud, we strongly recommend that you change the phone password for both accounts after Cisco Unity is installed.
Although the Example Subscriber account is no longer created during Cisco Unity installation in versions 4.0(3) and later, you may still have an Example Subscriber account from an earlier version, as the account is not removed during the upgrade process.
(For information on the accounts, refer to the "Default Accounts" section in the "Default Accounts and Message Handling" chapter of the Cisco Unity System Administration Guide, Release 4.0(5) at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_unity/unity40/sag/sag405/dom/index.htm.)
To Change the Password on the Example Administrator and Example Subscriber Accounts
Step 1 In the Cisco Unity Administrator, go to any Subscribers > Subscribers page.
Step 2 Click the Find icon.
Step 3 On the Find and Select Subscriber page, click Find.

Step 8 Under Reset Phone Password, enter and confirm a new password by using digits 0 through 9.
We recommend that you enter a long and nontrivial password; 20 digits or more is desirable. (The minimum length of the password is set on the Subscribers > Account Policy > Phone Password Restrictions page.) In a nontrivial password:
•The digits are not all the same (for example, 9999).
•The digits are not consecutive (for example, 1234).
•The password is not the same as the extension assigned to the example account.
•The password does not spell the name of the example account, the name of the company, the name of the IT manager, or any other obvious words.
Step 9 Click the Save icon.
Step 10 Click the Find icon.
Step 11 On the Find and Select Subscriber page, click Find.
Step 12 Click Example Subscriber.
Step 13 Repeat Step 5 through Step 9 for Example Subscriber.
Step 14 Close the Cisco Unity Administrator.
